Dubravka: Ronaldo welcomed me warmly to Man Utd

Martin Dubravka has revealed how he has received warmly at Manchester United by Cristiano Ronaldo.

The Slovakian goalkeeper swapped Newcastle for the Red Devils this past summer.

And Dubravka has talked up Ronaldo's warm welcome upon his arrival at Old Trafford.

"I've probably had the most communication with him all day, apart from Scott McTominay and Tom Heaton, who are right next to me in the dressing room, of course," Dubravka told Slovakian outlet Sport.

"We had the opportunity to talk to each other before training and then after training in the gym. He asked me about my family, whether I was staying in a hotel now and the usual things.

"He showed an interest in communication and he started first. I didn't want to look like a fan and go straight to him, but it was very pleasant to talk to him about anything."
